Repairs and remodeling often go hand-in-hand with home ownership. These updates can often be very costly, especially if they are not done right the first time. Calling upon the services of a professional contractor can help make sure the process is smooth and the job is done correctly. This is where Brandon Spiegel, owner of On The Level Residential Repair, steps in.

Spiegel, who opened his business in January of 2011, has more than 15 years experience in residential contracting. “I worked for 14 years as an apprentice to a general contractor,” Spiegel shared. He said his time as an apprentice taught him the importance of listening to his customers needs. Spiegel worked as a field manager for new home construction prior to starting his business, and said the stress and long hours were a deciding factor in going out on his own. “I wanted freedom to do the building and have more time to spend with my family,” he says.

On The Level Residential Repair can handle just about any kind of home repair, minor remodel or general handyman service, including minor plumbing and electrical work. “I also specialize in trim carpentry, and my pricing is extremely competitive,” said Spiegel. Customers can receive a free estimate of the services before making a decision on proceeding, and in some cases, same day service can be made available. Spiegel advertises 100 percent customer satisfaction, saying that he dedicates his time to ensure customers get what they want.

Business has been good so far for Spiegel. Referrals and word of mouth have generated about 99 percent of his jobs.

While most of his business has come from the FishHawk area, he also services a large portion of Hillsborough County. His operating hours are generally Monday-Friday from 9 a.m.-7 p.m. More information about the types of services offered, as well as quotes from satisfied customers, can be found at www.otlhomerepair.com.
